Summary
As a dedicated and compassionate Licensed Vocational Nurse with over 5 years of experience in adolescent care, I specialize in the treatment of eating disorders and the provision of comprehensive psychiatric support. My career has centered on delivering holistic, patient-centered care to individuals navigating complex emotional, psychological, and physical challenges, with particular expertise in co-occurring conditions such as anxiety, depression, PTSD, and trauma-related disorders. I am skilled in administering psychiatric medications, conducting thorough assessments, implementing evidence-based interventions, and collaborating with multidisciplinary teams to promote stabilization and recovery. In addition to my adolescent care experience, I am well-prepared to transition into adult mental health environments, where I can apply my knowledge of recovery-oriented care for a broad range of psychiatric and behavioral health conditions. I am eager to expand my nursing skills, enhance my clinical expertise, and contribute meaningfully to patient safety, recovery, and long-term wellness.
